MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — The atmosphere inside the American Airlines Arena didn’t feel like it was a preseason game on Monday night, but it was.
Gerald Green scored 17 points to help the Miami Heat get their first win of the exhibition season with a 97-94 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Monday night.
San Antonio led 84-71 after three quarters. But with both teams resting their starters in favor of younger players, the Heat outscored the Spurs 26-10 in the fourth.
HEAT: Miami center Hassan Whiteside (strained right calf) missed his third straight exhibition game.
